Digital assets
Digital Assets regulation is still developing across all jurisdictions and governments may in the future restrict the use and exchange of any or all digital assets. Digital Assets are generally not backed nor supported by any government or central bank, are not insured by depositor nor investor guarantees schemes and do not have the same protections countries’ bank deposits may have and are more volatile than traditional currencies and/or other investments. Transacting in Digital Assets carries the risk of market manipulation and cybersecurity failures such as the risk of hacking, theft, programming bugs, and accidental loss. Differing forms of Digital Assets may carry different risks. In certain circumstances it may not be possible to liquidate a digital assets position in a timely manner at a reasonable price. The volatility and unpredictability of the price of digital assets may lead to significant and immediate losses.
Investment Risks
An investment in any of the products mentioned herein involves significant risks, including loss of an investor’s entire capital investment. Alternative investment strategies are intended only for investors who understand and accept the risks associated with investments in such products and these products are not suitable for all investors. Investments in Digital Assets are high-risk investments and you should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong. The volatility and unpredictability of the price of Digital Assets may lead to significant and immediate losses. You are invited to do all the necessary research and learn before investing in Digital Assets. In considering any performance data in this website, you should bear in mind that past or targeted performance is not indicative of future results, and there can be no assurance that any of the products would achieve its investment objectives, comparable results or that target returns would be met. Past performance is not a guide to future performance, future returns are not guarantees and a loss of original capital may occur. The price and value of investments referred to in this website may fluctuate. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Where not relevant or representative, outliers may be excluded. Any future performance is subject to taxation which depends on the personal situation of each investor and which may change in the future.
